Guys I meant to post this some time ago, it is the poster for the new disney pook-a-looz toys. You can see clearly a Kermit, Gonzo, Animal, and Fozzie. These were showcased at D23, I'm also gonna link this in the Merchandise portion of this forum...
I love the Fozzie. Suprise that thre is no Piggy

Yeah, so far what I've seen at the Disney store by me is two girls Kermit tees and a Kermit tote bag. Hopefully a good sign of more to come.

I saw buttons, too. It's a very slow start, but that's what the plan was... test marketing for later merchandise. And this is all leftover UK stuff, too. But hey, I remember a time when you couldn't even find Mickey Mouse stuff at the Disney Store.

It looks like "Muppet*Vision Remastered" is making some progress! The attraction will be closed at Disney's Hollywood Studios from April 24 to May 14. I'm not sure about when/if Disney's California Adventure is getting a refurbishment.

I'm anxious to see what changes have been made.
